Sweet and Sour Chicken Tenders

December 05, 2018

Imagine tender chicken and crisp, colorful veggies — asparagus, green beans, and bell peppers — coated in a classic tangy sweet-and-sour sauce and served on a steaming bed of rice. Now imagine you made it in a stress-free 15 minutes! It can be done, thanks to some rather fantastic premade simmer sauce and rice from Seeds of Change.

This is a recipe we lean on when the week is crazy busy. It’s full of flavor and snap, and it helps us get the whole family fed fast. Our kids are pretty wild about chicken tenders, but we’ve also swapped in other proteins, like steak and firm tofu. The veggies are similarly flexible: if someone in your family dislikes asparagus, try julienned carrots or celery.
